ora grænar baunir

I love that this can design obviously hasn't changed in the last few decades.

 

PS, "grænar baunir" is literally "green beans", which seems to me a fine and reasonable thing to call peas.

 

BUT, the really excellent thing is that corn is called "gula baunir" - "yellow beans". We can only hope this stems from the naive misunderstandings of a nation which has only recently been able to access non-canned corn.
